Go for gold: Academia is Singapore Education Awards 2024’s Best English Language Enrichment Centre! Proven results and a positive learning culture? Sign us up.
Enrichment can be a big part of your kids’ lives, and can be something that they enjoy too! The key is finding the right enrichment centre — one that has proven results and knows how to make things fun and interesting for the kiddos.
Our top pick? Academia, which emerged as the gold winner of ‘Best English Language Enrichment Centre’ at Singapore Education Awards 2024! Here’s what makes them so special.
Its track record speaks for itself
Seriously, with more than ten years of history in the bag, you know that your children will be in good hands. Hundreds of students pass through its doors every year, which is quite a feat.
Steadily outperforming national averages year after year, more than 50% of its students have scored AL1s for their PSLE English. Add that to an almost 100% rate of A/B for O-Level English, as well as a greater than 70% distinction for A-Level GP — colour us impressed!
Diverse team of instructors
It focuses on making learning intuitive, with a skilled team of professional instructors to lead the way. Speaking of instructors, the team comes from a wide range of professional and academic backgrounds. They bring with them a wide spectrum of ideas and teaching styles, giving students the best exposure possible.
If you need further convincing, these instructors go through a painstaking training and attachment programme to ensure that they’re the best of the best! The teachers are well-loved by the students, which shows in the glowing feedback received from both parents and students.
Curated curriculum that differs for each batch
No singular approach fits every student. Indeed, Academia has rolled out a series of curated programmes that are catered for individual preferences and standards. Customisation is at the core of Academic Education’s curriculum, with lessons often tailored to individual students.
The best part? The curriculum is fully written and created in-house and goes through constant changes to align with the MOE syllabus.
Firm belief that learning should be fun
Imagine sending your kids to an enrichment centre where they’re happy to go in every time. That’s the reality for most students at Academia, which goes all out to create a positive learning environment. After all, kids learn best when they’re engaged!
Believing that learning should never be a chore, the centre’s curriculum makes things fun by taking into account students’ interests.
Preps students for the long run
To take it up a notch, its curriculum and teaching approach are led by a former top student and Princeton graduate. The centre’s instructors come from highly acclaimed universities, Oxbridge, and Ivy League institutions, offering guidance for students aspiring to enter one of these schools.
Not gonna lie, but applying for college can be really overwhelming — and Academia offers that much-needed pillar of support and know-how.
Why we love Academia
To make things even better, Academia also has a strong community arm. For example, this year, it was a partner in Care Corner’s Academic Support and PSLE Readiness programme. It also shows its support for student projects, such as the Utopia charity concert by students from Raffles and NUS High.
A centre that gets the results, prioritises students’ well-being, and gives back to society? Sounds like a dream to us!
Congratulations Academia on your fantastic win!
